A man or woman who sports the requisite mullet, tight acid washed jeans, hi top sneakers with fat tongues hanging out, a Warrant shirt (or paraphernalia of some such other dirty hair metal band). The turbo loves cars, but due to dire financial straits, can usually not afford a nice one, sometimes opting for a bicycle of equally low caliber.

Larry is such a turbo. I saw him riding home from the beer store with a case of Coors Light on his handlebars. His mullet was flying in the wind and his jeans were so tight I thought he was gonna pass out!

Short for turbocharger. A method of forced induction that uses exhaust gasses to turn a turbine, which in turn drives an intake pump to force more air into the engine. Available on many vehicles as a factory option or as an aftermarket kit.

The turbo option for my car was expensive, but I love the extra power!
